Golden Nuggets: Learn More About Cal Commit Nikko Remigio

Football

• Trace Travers talked with newest Cal commit Nikko Remigio, who will be a wide receiver for the Bears beginning in 2018. Here is a very intriguing excerpt, but the whole thing is worth your time.

There's a couple of key targets that Remigio is looking to bring up with him in the 2018 class, a couple of his teammates on the offensive line. Cal currently has six former Mater Dei guys on the roster, and Remigio hopes to help add more.

"Man if I could get the whole offense at Mater Dei to come up with me," Remigio said, "that would be excellent, but I’ve been working on Tommy Brown and Chris Murray."
